Scott Jordan's Scottish Pipers

Pipes for all Occassions

The life of a piper is a mixed bag - called upon to add tradition and ceremony to all kinds of events and occassions, both solemn and joyous. Here at Scott Jordan we offer professional pipers and pipe bands UK wide.

Bagpipers are great for weddings. Traditonally used to mark the various stages of the big day, they add considerable pomp and ceremony to proceedings, visually and audibly. Your guests will be most impressed

It is at such celebrations that a piper can express his own personality whilst entertaining a crowd. You will experience the true character and charisma of the individual piper, often with novelty tunes or demonstrations.

Pipers are adept at providing entertainment at key moments in the party

The 25th January - that date when we all go Scottish mad whilst celebrating the life of the great 18th Century people's poet, Robbie Burns. Burns Nights sprout up from late January and continue right through the first few weeks of February. They can also occur at any time during the day, with Burns lunches proving increasingly popular. A piper is a must. Please enquire and book early to avoid disappointment.

New Year's Eve / Hogmanay
A Hogmanay bagpiper is a wonderful thing - you will see them at New Year Celebrations all over the land - at house parties, restaurants, hotels, outdoor events etc. They can make quite an impact.

The standard package is for a piper to...

Pipe in the New Year - it's very effective for a piper in uniform to suddenly appear and play Auld Lang Syneas the clock strikes 12. This would then be followed by 1 or 2 uptempo celebratory tunes, such as Scotland the Brave.
In addition, you may want the piper to...

Pipe earlier in the evening - eg. to pipe guests into dinner.
Please let us know your particular requirements when making an enquiry.

Please note: New Year's Eve is a big date for pipers - most pipers are booked months and months in advance, and many have yearly Hogmanay committments. Please enquire early to avoid disappointment. That said, we'll do our best with late enquiries too.

Funerals;
The appearance of a piper can prove very dramatic whilst family and friends pay tribute to their departed loved ones. This is assisted by the emotive sound of the bagpipes playing traditional songs that can uplift the spirit or touch the heart. Seen over the ages at state and military funerals and remembrance days - solo pipers are a fitting part of funerals worldwide.
